Right? It takes a complicated process map to figure out:

A) where the game you want is B) how to change your vpn to get it.

Maybe this IS working. I just had a thought of going to 10 games a year with my son and screw watching the rest. The math checks.

Tyrone gets more snow and has less resources. The winter forecast changes about 45 minutes east of Pittsburgh. You might want to concentrate on responses from that area. The areas around it, Johnstown and Altoona have seen half or more of their population leave, yet have the same amount of roads.....other than that, FWD with good tires is almost always sufficient.

Its not just to hear about the shootings. The lack of policing and complaints paint a picture that is difficult to give context to. Hmm. Lets eat out. Lawrenceville and hipsters or South Side and bullets? To many driving from 20 min or more away, they have no context it is fine at 8 PM. Lawrenceville it is.

I use Lawrenceville to give a very good foodie area in comparison. This amounts to a character assassination for South Side. One that will follow it for quite a while. Not to the 10% of regulars there. To the 90% who came there for what it used to offer.

They developed quite differently. Boston, of course, was right on the shore and developed at a time that the distancea were significantly magnified as the horse was the only means of transportation. Common roads like Mass ave were continued outwards and places like Arlington sprung up. This lent itself to mass transit easily when technolgy caught up.

Greater Pittsburgh developed as mill towns. When Carnegie needed another mill, he looked for the next flat area near the rivers, took a steam ship to the European country struggling the most, and brought 5k or so people over. Built the mill, connected to the railroad, and built a town for them usually in their native language with English subtitles on signs. There was no interest in being connected to anything other than the mill, river, and railroad. They are suburbs now. They were fully independent towns (albeit company towns) then.

Not sure what this has to do with weather. But it does explain the ratio of suburbs to city.

Having lived in both....Chicago is flat and windy but has considerably more sun hours...no surprise. Chicago gets most of the "named" winter storms that travel across the plains.

Pittsburgh is grey with lots of precip, and did I mention it is grey? It also gets lake effect snows, which account for its higher precip amounts.

The key difference i saw was the topography. Hills offer a lee side that flat lands do not. Welcome to Pittsburgh. We sincerely hope you love it here. Just dont tell anyone, we like how cheap it is.
